A long day

Shannon is away overnight for work, so it has just been Laci and I home today. We are both feeling pretty crud with this head cold/sore throat business, so I wasn't really enthused about doing much at all..

Laci has watched quite a bit of cartoons on Austar, in between saying "I don't feel good" and "I'm cold" (rememebr it is still about 33 degress in the day here) and "I'm hungry".. The hungry part isn't knew, I hear it all day everyday, but at least her appetite doesn't seem to be affected by this lurgy, lucky considering she is still quite slim.. I weighed her this morning and she is a petite 13.4kg and she was 3 years old 2 months ago. She is fairly tall, but I don't think that much above average. She just looks tall I think beause she is slim and all arms and legs :)

Living here in the sticks can be very boring, I do know that if I hadn't of been working the last 2 years I would have gone quietly insane.. The highlight of our week for the past few weeks has been going to the dodgy little library or the little park, but that doesn't kill much time lol.. There is also only so many times that you can 'get groceries' when we only have a little supermarket and not much else! And today.. well there was no groceries to be done, the library is closed on mondays and she was feeling too yuck for the park.. So the day was veeeery long I tell ya! I also didn't really feel up to packing, so I couldn't even get excited about that!

So the highlight of the day.. checking the post box at the post office! ha ha.. There was a letter there from Westmead that stressed me out a bit.. It basically says they are really busy at the moment and they have "advanced booked" me for my cycle and I have to call on my expected date my period is due or I may lose my spot.. I am a little worried that my period will be late as my cycle seems to be acting a day or so behind.. OKAY!! I won't stress yet. There is a nurse there who knows my story and knows that we would have already flown all the way down there by then.. so hopefully there will be no problems.

Also a while back I had booked a review appointment with my fertility specialist in Cairns and that apointment is this wednesday, I am flying there and back on wednesday, I decided to keep the appointment to see what he thinks and also I think after this IVF cycle we may be pretty stretched $$ wise with the move and all, so I may have to consider some insemination (IUI) cycles with him and we will be living in Cairns so it will be so so much easier..

Better fly, time to organise an early dinner for us girls :)
